| Notes | Previous indexer suggested Carl Burgos ? for pencils. This story is similar to the Christopher Fenn story from Fantastic Fears #3, with notable differences. The overall story arc of checking out a case for a wealthy woman after a man named Alf is murdered by ghosts on the property is repeated. |
